Question! So my midwife told me that breastfeeding IS a form of birth control for 6 months... That it suppresses the pregnancy hormone and raises oxytocin.. I'm pretty sure? Is that true?! I really don't want to go on birth control but don't want to get pregnant again for a few years
All mommas on birth control! what birth control are you using , I don't know what to choose after the baby is born. I've never really been on birth control. I definitely don't want anything that can cause complications, weight gain and mood swings! thanks in advance!!
Birth control recommendations!? NOT THE DEPO SHOT. Doctor brought up birth control options at my last appointment but I just don't know which one!
What birth controls have worked flawlessly for you?... I don't want anymore kids after my daughter but I don't want to tie my tubes and I am not going to become a born again virgin so I want your best recommendations ladies! Thanks in advance :)
I have PCOS & I don't get why I have to take birth control & metformin at the same time? isn't birth control supposed to stop you from ovulating & metformin is supposed to help you ovulate? This is so frustrating. I just want to be able to get pregnant..
SO WHAT IF I DON'T WANT TO GET ON BIRTH CONTROL AFTER I HAVE MY SON

@ababy16, I don't blame you for wanting to choose birth control. I myself might be leaning that way.

@babygirl71716, that's what it says on planned parenthood! That if you don't have a period while breastfeeding you won't get pregnant.. And my midwife told me the same thing. I definitely don't want to chance it though. Thank you ladies for the responses!! Guess I'll be choosing the lesser of all evils of birth control 😩

I have seen so many people posting this....
you are 100?pable of getting pregnant AGAIN while breastfeeding. just like are 100% capable of getting pregnant an hour after giving birth.
it may sound crazy and unrealistic, but it's just the way women work.
my bff had her daughter almost 5 months ago, and she is 4 months pregnant. ONLY breastfeeds.

I think it could be different for every woman. I breastfed my first for 3 years and didn't get pregnant. we used NO birth control or condoms. I got pregnant about a month or 2 AFTER I stopped nursing. it made my period irregular or nonexistent. after my son it took me about 10 year to get regular again lol. only because I got the depo and breastfed my son.

No you'll get pregnant so quick after you have baby that's our most fertile time. Already happened to two of my friends

Yeeeeeeah you can definitely get pregnant while breastfeeding. While it can stop your cycles it is in no way a reliable form of birth control.
